  1. Yes.... as a Star Trek fan, we know there is silicon based life.... LOL I think we just need to keep looking, if we find a candidate, we can decide if its "life"... and then take it from there. I agree that if we are narrow minded, then we are defeatign the whole purpose of searching for life... put another way..... "its life.... but not as we know it!"
  2. Why was I not told that this had been taken over? Dammit man.... I have felt alone and unloved since this mod died... but you bought it back to life... Tell you what.... if you bring it out for 1.2 then I will devote my life to serving you.... mind you, I'm 56 so... Anyhow... thanks for this...
  3. meh...... Gravity sucks. NEXT!
  4. Lost in Spa A family gets lost in their spa pool... ooops, that it two letters, sorry, my bad.
  5. I rather think Squad may go bust with this competition... OK... just run the latest version of KSP..... see.... now, what did I win?????? (apparently, the whole game is one big bug!)
  6. "Duuuuuude"....... << seriously, I hope that clears up, if not, get some ointment. a "cassette" player is one thing, a CD is another (but I seriously doubt either will totally die off, used in answering machines and CD's are still in cars and for music)... BUT.... show them an LP...... made of vinyl .... LOL Or... I can show you part of an old HDD I owned.... lets see if I can find a photo of it on Google.... just to amaze you.... I hung them on the wall once the HDD died..... Then again..... the first car I owned might amaze you.... The point is... YOU get to see the future.... never had cellphones when I was a kid, you do... so what will YOU be posting in 40 years time when having a similar discussion with a "youngster"????? Will you post a photo of your first car.... capable of 200MPH ....... when THEY are amazed there were cars that had wheels... because everyone in the future will have hover cars.... Yeah.... YOUR TIME WILL COME!!!!!
  7. Seriously? You saw the wall come down, didn't you? You saw the Pluto fly by... 9/11 ..... Not every world shattering event has to be world shattering... for example... the curiosity rover might be part of a bigger thing... you were there at the start, so you can tell your Grand kids all about how boring it was.... till it discovered life... Seriously... the mere fact that you were born is, in itself, an earth shattering event, for any number of reasons.... for all we know, you might make "first contact" one day on your way to Church..... or you could invent the warp drive..... who knows... life itself, with all of us in it, is an earth shattering event. never sell yourself short.
  8. I nearly forgot....while the Moon landings was a major event for most of us... on a local scale... it doesn't compare to the day I was caught in a major earthquake here in New Zealand.... a year before the landings.... The 1968 Inangahua earthquake occurred 25 kilometres (16 mi) west of Murchison, New Zealand, near the small town of Inangahua Junction. It struck at 5:24 am NZDT on 24 May 1968 with a depth of only 12 kilometres (7.5 mi), being extremely shallow for an earthquake of its size. " The earthquake had a moment magnitude of 7.1 " I WAS RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF THAT.... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1968_Inangahua_earthquake
  9. Yes, as I discussed in my birthday thread... Every generation has its "focal point of history!" For me, and some others, it was the Moon landing... before us, it was the dropping of the first atomic bomb... after us.... the Challenger explosion.... But then again, some of us are lucky to have been around in multiple events..... Moon landings, JFK being shot.... the Vietnam war.... etc etc... My point is... yes, some of you young ones missed out being here during some events, but other events that you were alive in have helped shape you, in your life, and helped shape the world,. and if I died tomorrow... then you get to witness things next week that I never will.... the Moon landings were good... but that wasn't the only major happening on the planet, it wasn't the first and it wont be the last. Some of you will witness man landing on Mars.... I don't think I will... sadly.
  10. and the closest wheel shop is how many millions of miles away? Damn!
  11. Sorry if already posted, but this is good. Not sure in the img command will work on this, but if not, I'll post the link as well. OK.... so it didn't like it.... left click and drag the mouse left or right.... http://www.360cities.net/image/mars-panorama-curiosity-solar-day-1451
  12. I have a fleet of 13 ships.... so be careful who you fire at... the destroyer you sink today can be a battleship tomorrow... I'll hunt you down, in a nice way... and maybe we can team up. I'll PM you on WoW (EU) ... my name there is Kiwi1960 .... amazingly.
  13. which is why i said I'll wait... let you ....nice people... I mean... mugs... find them for me... errr... sorry. Read my last few posts....
  14. Naa.... I'll wait for you mugs....errr..... lovely people.... to find all the bugs first! Besides.... playing World of Warships.... virtually NO bugs in that game....
  15. I have been there so many times...a new release... wow...hype hype... yippie kye aye.... fun fun fun fun.... Only to find that the release contains even more bugs than the version its replacing.... So if you don't mind.... I'll wait till I play it myself because.... been there... done that... not buying it anymore... wanna see for myself..... I mean.... yeah..... 1.1.3 was good... till the wheels totally screwed up my playing experience.... I stopped playing, but started when helicopter totors was released because you don't really nned a take off when flying a chopper... then got bored and annoyed with the stutter..... I haven't played KSP in ages now.... So.... I'll believe the hype when I see if for myself... but I'll also make a prediction.... MANY bugs will be be found... doesn't it always happen that way? So.... not boarding the hype train this time.
  16. Besides... I have other things.... to raise with the Moderators.....
  17. Play the game already.... its the only way you will find out for sure.... and also, read my signature... if you're sane... STOP being sane... you NEED to be really really insane to play, and enjoy KSP! "wibble"
  18. My point to "stupid chris" at the time was that it wasn't really a conspiracy theory if it came from a make believe game... it was using "conspiracy theory" in name only to poke fun at the whole thing without making it seem real. It was posted in the FUN area for just that... it wasn't posted in any serious debate area. The rules should be applied with give and take, because if you are seriously going to apply the letter of the law to all threads, then they would all be locked ... example: talking about killing Kerbals could be seen as threatening to kill, no matter that the Kerbals do not really exist... or do they.... is that a conspiracy theory? See.... give and take... the letter of the law was wrongly applied all those years ago. However.... I won't comment again on this matter.
  19. We are talking years ago.... but I'll do my best.... Here it is.... Yeah.... read that thread again, even more angry now... I feel like abusing the Moderators so I'll go away and come back later. Really.... seems to be one law for some... and another for people like me..... I'm going to sharpen my axe.....
  20. OK.... time to ask that very very hard question.... When I first joined the forums, I started a thread about Kerbal conspiracy theories.... people were having fun with it.... then a Mod locked it saying "any" conspiracy theories were not allowed.... even fun ones involving KSP.... Now... someone else has started a similar thread and ... nothing.... apparently... its not about conspiracies at all... its about who starts the thread.... right? (yeah.... even after all this time it still bugs the hell out of me.... at the very least, you moderators owe me an apology..... I mean, either its against the rules or not.... )
  21. Refund??? Errrrrr....ummm.... "Sorry... no speaky English..... you go now.... "
  22. That habitat unit was... rocking...... No one came a knocking.... Jeb smiled.... Val looks annoyed....
  23. OK, a question..... Antenna ranges.... not that I care much either way, now... but what happens when you send a probe to the Mun (which isn't that far away FOR MY POINT TO BE MADE)..... and it ends on the other side of the Mun.... will there be a signal blackout? I ask this question because if there will be signal blackouts, then I can see people having to have at least four com-sats orbiting each planet and moon JUST to prevent black outs... Unless of course.... you just go with the flow and don't care about losing contact with a horny Jeb all alone in a capsule with that gorgeous Valentina.....
